Ginger is my newest project created for a luncheon in April, the Joint Meeting of Doll clubs in Eugene Oregon. The theme for the event is Hats Off to Madame and will be a tribute to Madame Alexander dolls.

I created a mold from a Madame Alexander look alike doll head and made a mask for a cloth over clay head. Then I designed a body to fit the mask.

I chose ivory doe suede for the doll's body as I wanted a porcelain look for her.

Cupid is my newest pattern and is available on my website at my pattern page. He is the perfect Valentine's Day doll to make as a gift or for your own Valentine's Day decorating! Very detailed instructions include great graphics and color photos!
